    • Thank you. You contacted directly with the parcel broker so your best option is to proceed directly against them for breach of contract. I hope you have read enough to understand that you will not be able to rely on the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Do you understand why? Have Parcel to Go giving you a reason for declining reimbursement? Do you have anything in writing from your customer which shows that they did not refuse delivery and which identifies the actual circumstances of the situation?

    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

Hi

 

Can anyone help??

I had my 04 plate car stolen off my drive dec 07. Norwich union have placed the claim on hold (been 5 weeks).

 

They say the keys do not match, something to do with transponders. they reckon one set of keys is not for my car!! it certainly is!

I have used both sets of keys on my car with no problems.

I'm not sure how to handle this as i've never been in this situation before.

 

many thanks

Sounds like you have an inexperienced claim handler dealing with your claim.

 

Let's look at it from their point of view.

 

Your car disappears from your drive. Handlers need to look at the possibility of policyholders commiting the theft themselves.

 

I'm assuming the fobs do not look the same or have some differing feature?

 

If this is the case, the handler might be thinking that the original keys were used to steal the car and you've replaced the keys with a different set.

 

Get onto the them and ask them to contact the dealership (ANY dealership) for your car. Better still, get the dealer to contact your handler and explain that the fobs will be different.

 

There's NO way an adviser will be able to determine the fobs are for different cars just by looking.

Hi thanks for the reply the fobs and keys are the correct one's but what they are saying is that the transponders in the keys don't match each other so one of the keys wont open or start my van and also they said ford checked them and said so to but both keys work on my van but it has not be recovered yet so them saying that this means my biz will go down the shoot i just have not got the financial backing to replace the machinery that was in the van and thats what makes me my living. :(

...interesting

 

This would suggest that the transponders have been sent to Ford for their evaluation.

 

It may be worth a call to NUI. Ask them to tell you who they sent the transponders to. Then call them to explain FULLY how they can tell they differ. You can, of course, call any commercial Ford dealership and get them to explain how they differ.

 

Sounds like it could be an admin/human error, if what you are saying is true.

So no way the theft was captured on camera......

 

What have they said their next step is? They need to make a decision one way or another.

 

What are they going to investigate now?

 

Hi there was no video footage the police has stopped there investigations so phoned equity red star yesterday they said they had the report in front of them and they were going to put it to the underwriters because there was a problem with the report which (absolute stated the loss adjusters) and he explained the problem to me and said the vehicle was left unlocked and the keys were left in it also but that was not the case the vehicle was locked, so they said i will get a decision early next week i have already been in touch with the financial ombudsman and a solicitor and he said it sounds like a farce HOW CAN THEY PROVE THAT ONE OF THE KEYS DOES NOT START MY VAN THEY CANT THE VAN HAS NOT BEEN RECOVERED

That's exactly my point.

 

You need to call the adjuster and get them to explain why they have told the insurer the vehicle was unlocked with the keys in the ignition. From what you have said, this is not correct.

 

You need to get this sorted first thing tomorrow as the Insurer will be acting on this information.

 

As an aside, there is no need for this to go to underwriters as this is a claims decision.

 

Does the claim fit the criteria or not? Simple question really.

 

Don't really understand why underwriters would need to be involved.

 

Unless you've changed your story somewhere.....

Hi m8 its as i feared the loss adjusters have writen proof that the transponder in key 1 which is the used key has a 1996 transponder in it which is a fixed code, key 2 which is unused key has rolling code so they are assuming that there is a third key in operation, was used to steal the vehicle, so what they want is me to come up with an explanation why the key transponder has been changed (that i can't answer) but i was thinking the other day and i remembered that early this year i had an employee which was sacked for bad time keeping was insured to drive the transit one day he finished work and brought the vehicle back to my home address parked the van on my drive give me the key then he left to go home. The following day i left the house went to open my van with the remote and the door's would not open (as lazy as i am i went in the house to get spare key & fob then i opened the door's started the vehicle then went to work. So the used key the one that has the wrong type of transponder in it spent months in my house) so what i did when loss adjusters wanted an explanation i thought of this? so i went to police station to ask them is this possible and would they look into it and ye just the answer i wanted SRY WE CAN'T DO ANYTHING:-( so ye thats the only explanation i can come up with .

 

 

 

 

 

I no there is a lot of fraugalent claims going on but in my eyes they look at every claim now as fraugalent i have 7 years no claims bonus never made a claim always looked after my vehicles paid my premiums on time when the unexpected happens i am charged guilty i have been some where down the line been robbed of my lively hood and left with no help at all and now i have lost my buisness which was not in financial difficulty , what else can i say but apart from they have got it wrong but ye thats what happen's these days and i gota get on with it but thx 4 the replys

Did they write this?

 

It is neither reasonable nor fair to deny a claim on the basis of an assumption.

But they would need to prove that you had something to do with it!

 

Ridiculous...

 

Have you appealed the decision?

 

Might be worth a written complaint.

 

Thx 4 the reply

 

Yes m8 i have written to both the chief executive of equity red star about this and the chief of absolute loss adjusters then if i get no joy i will go to the financial ombudsmun and hope i can salvage something :-(
